synopsis

Physical interventions to the film medium – scratches, drawings, and paintings – overlay the urban and natural landscape captured by the fast-moving camera. Here and there, variations on the essential elements of the situation emerge from the visual stream: the hunter, the dog, the gun, and the flock of birds.
